Yeah I don’t think I could handle my kid complaining about being dizzy while also insisting on only eating one meal a day either.
I have a suspicion that the reaction to seeing this tweet would be a really accurate way to infer someone’s age.
Can someone please explain the joke?
This is c/rareinsults. Looks like her name is Chandini. Her father called her Sardini, which is certainly a rare insult.
Why does not eating sardines make someone anemic? Wouldn’t that make them anorexic?
Likely because one of the largest causes of anemia is iron deficiency and
allmost of the foods that are listed are high in iron
It’s like my mom complaining her headaches are chronic but she refuses to drink a glass of water
If your mom has chronic headaches, chances are that she’s already tried and it doesn’t work.
As a migraine sufferer, I’ve never heard of more useless advice than ‘drink water’.
Could be real. I get cluster headaches. They’re called that because they occur in clusters. Mine happen every year around early spring, and usually last less than an hour. It’s a damn miserable hour though.
This year they came on once or twice a day for two months. Usually I only suffer for roughly a month. The amount of people I had to explain why I needed to not talk and hold my head in a certain position, who then told me I was dehydrated and should have some water. Well I wanted to kill them. I know my body better than anyone. My piss was nearly clear, I was plenty hydrated.
Your mom probably knows her body and knows that the water will not help.
Fun fact, some people get cluster headaches year round and they can last for over a day. They are truly miserable. It’s like all the muscles in your temple and behind your eye tense to max and won’t let go. I’ve had black eyes from them. They literally squeeze the tears out of your eyeball.
I can’t imagine getting them worse than I do. They have a fun nickname too- suicide headaches. When they’re happening I have a recurring fantasy of drilling a hole in my skull to relieve the pressure. But it’s not actually pressure, just kinda feels like it.
Of course it can be real. But you want to remove all the easily manageable factors, like dehydration. We had this with my kids a few times:
- My head hurts
- Do you remember drinking water or other stuff?
- Will the water help with my headache?
- Could help, could not, but you can try
It was kinda hard to explain that this is not a game mechanic where you have a clear countermeasure to a negative status, but they more or less understand it now
I sent this to my mother captioned as “Other parents acting as crazy as you” and then received a my own text lecture about health and eating properly.
